Former Collegiate Player Pinpoints Game-Changing Key to Liberty's Playoff Statement vs. Minnesota

Former Texas A&M player Ashanti Plummer recently appeared on Chiney Ogwumike's YouTube program to analyze the New York Liberty's dominant postseason opening victory against Minnesota. Plummer emphasized that having Breanna Stewart serves as a massive advantage for the squad during the playoffs.

During the 91-75 win away from home, Stewart delivered a remarkable stat line containing 34 points, 12 rebounds, six assists, two steals, and two blocks. Her defensive impact limited the opponents to merely 22 points in the paint at a 37.9 percent shooting clip.

Head coach Chris DeMarco expressed full trust in Stewart's abilities on the court, while Stewart herself noted that she was mentally prepared to do whatever was necessary to secure the win following regular-season losses to the Atlanta Dream.
